Re: Risotto

aww crap you did it now Eddie. . no sauteed onion and no toasting of rice.. All hel is gonna break loose , you done cracked the seventh seal.

Sorry earthmum I missed that question. basically what eddie said. It works even with cold sauce , just add equal parts 1:1 of rice and sauce and enough stock to cover them. put the pot on the stove and heat and then start adding in the heated stock once the rice absorbs the first bit of stock. Some ppl may have a problem with not toasting the rice but I wil garuantee it will taste awesome anyway.

To work really well , the bolognese or meat sauce should be more like the real northern italian type meat sauces. Almost completely meat based with very very little tomato or extra veg ,not the soupy version that is mostly tomato with a bit of meat. What my father would call ketchup and ground beef. It could be done with that kind of sauce but it works much better with an intensely flavoured more traditional meat sauce, as it will be the main flavouring component of the rice.

Re: Risotto

Hello to everyone!

I'm having a dinner and besides to a risotto I will be giving roast chicken breasts with cherrie tomatoes and asparagus. Jamie's recipe is for one person, but I'm making 8 chicken breasts, do you think the cooking time is the same (25 to 35 minutes) or do you recommend that I let them stand in the oven a little more?

Wow, I just hear a swooshing sound here and caught out of the corner of my eye what looked like the end of a broom flying past my window
